" Yes Mamito." She replied and faced down as she made invisible lines with her toes on the floor.
" And what happened, my child? Did you both spend the night talking like you used to do in your dreams." She asked and watch Annabel's face change from guilt.
" No Mamito.' She paused enough to gather strength t say the next word. ' We had sex." She found her strength and said it. She tried to avoid looking up at Number 2 out of fear of what she might say. She knew deep down that she had tried to warm her and treat her like a Mother would do to her child. Scold her like a mother could scold her child. She had let her mother down.
